As you all might know, I’m lucky to be included in making the books in The Mind’s Eye Series. We have just put up our third book up for pre-order, and I think it’s time you get to know the amazing authors and photographer.
The first to stop by my blog is J. Michael Radcliffe
What genre do you write?
Fantasy
Have you always wanted to be a writer?
Yes, from a fairly early age I wanted to write – I think it was just after I read J.R.R. Tolkein’s ‘The Hobbit’
Tell me 3 things about you that readers don’t know:
In my day job, I am a Compliance Officer for a local community bank – I spend hours reading and interpreting government regulations (and yes, it is just as fun as it sounds!) 🙂
I have a paralyzing fear of spiders
#1 on my bucket list is to visit England, Scotland, and Ireland, visiting as many castles as possible. I also want to have my photo taken in front of Radcliffe Tower in Manchester.

I have self-published four novels and seven short stories, all of which are set in the same world. My preferred medium is the short story – I enjoy trying to develop characters and plot within a short word-count. I also tend to write the end of the book first – in all of my full length stories, I have started by writing the last chapter.

I loved both books in the Mind Eye Series! I had the pleasure of reading work by authors stories that I’ve never read before, that’s how I met Michael. Looking forward to the third book, again reading authors work I haven’t read before.
Spiders seem to be a lot of people’s fear, right Helle? I’ve enjoyed reading this interview❤️👍😊
Yesssss…spiders…ewwww… 😝
LOL!
Thank you for reading the series, Kim! I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed them so far and hope you’ll also love Triptychs 🙂 xx

It’s so much fun being involved in The Mind’s Eye Series! Thanks for offering to do these interviews, Helle 🙂 It was great to find out a bit more about Michael! Michael, I hope you do make it to England, would love to meet up for a chat!!
If Michael comes to England I’ll stop by and meet him too. Hopefully I’ll visit England in 2016. Then we’ll meet up, Maria. 😊
Oh wow! That would be wonderful, Helle 🙂
Yay 😀
LOL – I really hope I make it over there some day! If I ever do, you, Helle, and I can talk writing over a cup of coffee (Idris’ treat!) 😀
I hope so, too 🙂 And, you must bring Idris!
I’m more than sure I will Maria👍📖✨ What a great series, and more authors and photographers to get to know with this one. Woot! Anything you guys need, just let me know.
Thanks, Kim. Actually, Darcia and I love your photos and we wanted to invite you to contribute some to the next book if you’re interested in joining us, Kim! 🙂
Are you kidding! OMG, I be honored❤️👍
Woohoo
That was suppose to say I’d be, lol! This is unreal, I’m so thrilled to be included with such talented people.✨✨❤️ Thank you!!!
Yay! We’ll be in touch when we are starting work on the next book! 🙂 xx
Looking forward to it😋😋
That will be awesome. Kim has the best photos 🙂
Yes! 💙
Thank you Ben ( My Gnomie) ❤️ I can’t believe I get to be part of this awesome series! I’m still doing a happy dance😊😊
I have absolutely loved this series – it is so much fun seeing how the same photograph can inspire in different ways. Can’t wait for the next round! 🙂
And thanks so much for posting this, Helle! Have to apologize for the stuffy photo I sent – it’s my ‘banker’ photo from my business card. Really need to have a different one taken for my writing!!
And I apologize for the missing E. 😉 I think your photo is great! 😊

Love your fantasy tales, Michael.
I hate BIG spiders 😀 Great interview, Michael!
Michael, I continue to be SO jealous of you being able to read and interpret government regulations all day. How much fun can one person have? 🙂
